Why do boats float better in salt water rather than fresh water?
flotation is due to the fact the boat is less dense than the water, salty water is more dense than normal water. Consequently things can be heavier or more dense and still be less dense than water aka they float.
Where is the majority of freshwater on earth?
Ice is technically freshwater so in glaciers, and some lakes or ponds are freshwater.
Will heptane float or sink in water?
As heptane is lighter than water, it will float.
Why do you think it's possible to float in the Great Salt Lake and sink in Horsetooth Reservoir?
The specific gravity of the water in the Great Salt Lake is much higher than that of the Horsetooth Reservoir. You displace the same volume in both lakes, but you displace more weight of water in the Great Salt Lake, so by Archimedes Principe you get more lift.
Will a density of 2.7 float?
Is this the density of a liquid or an object? If this is the density of a liquid and you want to make an object float, than the density of the object should be less than 2.7. If this is the density of an object you are trying to make float, than the density of the liquid should be greater than 2.7.
Why is it easier to float in the Atlantic Ocean compared to Lake Erie?
Salt water has a greater density than freshwater does.
Why is easier to float in the ocean than in a freshwater pond?
Yes.
Why is it easier to float in saltwater than in freashwater?
Because saltwater is more dense than freshwater.
How do objects float in salt water?
An object will float when it is less dense than the liquid around it. Because saltwater is denser than freshwater, it is easier for an object to float.
Why is it easier to float in the sea than the swimming pool?
It is easier to float in the sea because the saltwater is denser than freshwater in a swimming pool, providing more buoyancy. Additionally, the saltwater's buoyant force helps you float more effortlessly compared to freshwater.
Why will an egg float in saltwater other than freshwater?
cuz saltwater is more dense than freshwater
Do you float or sink in salt water?
You are more likely to float in salt water than in freshwater due to the increased density of salt water. The salt makes the water denser, providing more buoyancy and making it easier for objects, including humans, to float on its surface.
Why can a person not float in fresh water but can in salt water what does that tell us about the density of salt water?
A person can float in saltwater because it is denser than freshwater. The salt in the water increases its density, making it easier for objects like the body to float. This difference in density is why a person can float in saltwater but not in freshwater.
Why would it be easier to control saltwater than freshwater blooms?
predicting would it be easier to control saltwater or freshwater blooms explain
What would happen to the egg in the freshwater glass?
The egg would sink in freshwater because it is denser than water. Eggs have a higher density than freshwater, so they sink rather than float.
Is lake maracaibo freshwater or saltwater?
Lake Maracaibo is saltwater, being an estuary rather than a true lake.
Why is it easier to float in the sea than the pool?
It is easier to float because the sea water is denser than water found in a swimming pool. This is caused by the salt in the oceans.
